Who am I ?

My name is Alex Garcia and I am a creative and energetic product and category manager with more than 12 years’ experience managing complex retail projects for FMCG brands. Over the course of my career, I have cultivated a rich network of relationships across retail, distribution, and manufacturing. I am currently category manager for one of the leading kids fashion groups in Europe. Past experience also includes working for the Trade Commission of Mexico, the Utah Governor’s Office for Economic Development, the Pan-American Games, and the Bidding Committee for the 2nd Youth Olympic Games “Guadalajara 2014”.

I care deeply about sustainability and capitalism, childhood development, social justice, poverty alleviation, and women’s socioeconomic empowerment. I have strong ties with her community, and have served on several NGOs fundraising committees in HK, focusing on grassroots fundraising and awareness campaigns targeting homelessness, menstrual poverty, mental health, and girls’ education and development.

I am currently a member of the fundraising committee for Birthday Happiness Asia, Guider for the 32 West Kowloon Pack for the Girl Guides of Hong Kong, and part of Room to Read’s Changemakers group.
